    Excellent. For the really picky question, from the illistrations, are the 4moa dots sighted so that the POI is centered within the dot ?

    Well for one thing a 50m zero and a 200m zero if they are the same height point in the bullet trajectory (as an example) I find that if I sight in at 50m while the hit point is the same at 200m the group will have a lot more spread that if I sight in at 200m because a correction at 50m might be small but it becomes a lot bigger error at 200m. If I sight in carefully at 200m the group will be very tight at 50m but not the other way around.
    Just make sure you do it on a calm day or variables will start to come into play at 200 that wouldn't be an issue at 50. I sight in my long range stuff at 100 yards and so does most everyone else for that very reason, variables are minimized at closer ranges.
